Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

My child is hoping to apply to a competitive London university like UCL or King's. Can a tutor help with that?

Absolutely. Many of our tutors are experienced in helping students with their university applications. They can provide support with personal statements, prepare them for the demands of A-Level study, and build the subject knowledge needed to meet the entry requirements of top universities.

There's a lot of competition for good sixth form places near Brixton. Can tutoring help my child stand out?

Yes, it can. By focusing on the specific areas your child needs to improve for their GCSEs, a tutor can help them build both the knowledge and the confidence to achieve the grades they need. We know that 90% of our students improve by at least one grade, which can make a big difference when applying for popular sixth forms.

What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?

We know how important the right fit is. That's why we have our First Lesson Guarantee. If for any reason you feel the first tutor isn't the right match for your child, just email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover your first session with a new tutor.

Is it just for school subjects like Maths and English?

Not at all! While we have thousands of tutors for core academic subjects, we also have experts who can teach practical skills like coding or a new language, help with musical instruments like guitar, or even support with university-level courses. It's about learning what your child is passionate about.

How do I choose the right tutor for my child?

You can read detailed tutor profiles, watch their introductory videos, and check reviews from other parents just like you. We recommend messaging a few tutors to discuss your child's specific needs before booking. It's all about finding someone your child will feel comfortable learning with.

How much does online tutoring cost?

Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and the subject level, starting from around £20 per hour. Tutors set their own rates, and you can see their prices clearly on their profiles, so you can find an expert tutor that fits your family's budget.

Are the tutors background checked?

Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor on our platform has passed a background check. We are also very selective, accepting only 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure you're choosing from the best.

How does online tutoring actually work?

It's simple. All lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom. It has a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and tools for sharing documents. All your child needs is a laptop or computer and a stable internet connection.

Can a tutor help if my child has lost their confidence?

Definitely. This is one of the biggest benefits of one-to-one tutoring. A great tutor provides a safe, encouraging space where your child can ask questions without fear of judgement, helping to rebuild their self-belief one lesson at a time.

How long are the lessons and how often should they be?

Lessons are typically an hour long, but you can arrange different lengths with your tutor. Most students have one lesson per week, but this is completely flexible. You can arrange a schedule that works best for your child and your family.

Can I track my child's progress?

Yes. We encourage you to have regular communication with your child's tutor. They can provide feedback after each session, and you can discuss your child's progress and goals together to ensure the lessons are always on the right track.

What happens if we need to cancel a lesson?

We understand that life can be unpredictable. Our cancellation policy allows you to cancel or reschedule a lesson free of charge, as long as you give your tutor at least 12 hours' notice. You can manage this easily through your Tutorful account.
